“Thank you, Dr. Cassidy. One other thing that I want to add, too; not only is it less expensive, people can afford to buy insurance where before they had not been able to. They use more preventative services, but they take care of themselves better. So they are healthier. Diabetics control their blood sugar better. People who have high blood pressure control that better. Folks with high cholesterol tend to get their cholesterol lowered. They have less heart attacks, strokes. So they are healthier. They live longer. They are more productive. They are happier. They feel better, have more energy. So it actually promotes wellness.
